What book are you reading? [Mine]
« on: May 09, 2012, 02:28:28 am »
Im reading All Hell Let Loose By Max Hastings.


Its 789pages long.


The back.


This is a study of the greatest and most terrible event in history which shows
its impact upon hundreds of millions of people around the world - soldiers sailors
and airmen; British housewives and Indian peasants;SS killers and the citizens of Leningrad; Japanese suicide pilots and American carrier crews.This is a 'Every man's story'.It is an attempt to answer the question:'What was the Second World War like'.

Well I have a whole stack of computer books but the ONLY book I actually read was "Crime and punishment" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky which was a great book.

My latest interest is mycology so for the past couple of weeks I've been reading:

Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms
http://amzn.com/1580081754

I have everything I need to start growing shiitake mushrooms except the mushroom spores (which I'll be ordering soon) and sawdust which my cousin told me he could get me (he's a construction worker).


The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.

Deathshead novels are great, I want to read the Songs of Ice and Fire books when I get a solid chunk of time.

I am currently reading (as slightly embarassing as I find it) "Fascinating Womanhood"
-It is a book on how to behave as a Christian woman should. Towards her husband mostly.
